What a great time I had in NYC last week despite the wicked cold! No kidding, this was the first time in my entire 34 years of age that I have ever witnessed falling snow. It was quite the experience for me, it’s beautiful! I prefer enjoying it from a warm hotel room, but what the heck, I was only in NY for a couple of days, so I didn’t let it slow me down….much 🙂

Fist up was this adorable little bakery called Bouchon Bakery. I wasn’t expecting much since it was just inside a mall but boy did it prove me wrong. The vanilla macaron photographed a few photos down was probably one of the best things I have ever eaten, hands down!

Here’s the homemade Oreo Cookie, it was just so so if I am being honest.

A nice big Bouchon chocolate chip cookie. Doesn’t touch Levain’s cookies, but this one was good.

After lunch we strolled on over to Momofuku’s for some unusual desserts such as crack pie, birthday cake truffles, compost cookies and cereal milk ice cream. They were all…..really interesting. I’ll leave it at that. My favorite was probably the birthday cake truffles.
